Here is Lua code that prints the first nine fibonacci numbers:

Here is Context+Lua that prints 3 x 3 table of the first nine natural
numbers:
\starttext
\setupTABLE[each][each][frame=off,align=left,width=4em,height=2em]
\startluacode
context.bTABLE()
for j = 0, 2 do
  context.bTR()
    for k = 1, 3 do
      context.bTD()
        context(3*j+k)
      context.eTD()
    end
  context.eTR()
end
context.eTABLE()
\stopluacode
\stoptext
How can these be combined to print a 3 x 3 table of the first nine
fibonacci numbers?
I have tried a couple of ways to iterate over the lua table f in the most
indented line of context, looked at what pertinent threads I could find,
the Wiki entries, CLD, and tried Aditya's method from Stack Exchange; I am
missing something.
You have a *global* table f  that collides with the internals of context
local function fib(n)
  f={1,1}
  for i=3,9 do
    f[i]=f[i-1]+f[i-2]
  end
  return(f[n])
end


\starttext
\setupTABLE[each][each][frame=off,align=left,width=8em,height=2em]

\startluacode
local function fib(n)
  local f={1,1}
  for i=3,9 do
    f[i]=f[i-1]+f[i-2]
  end
  return(f[n])
end
context.bTABLE()
for j = 0, 2 do
  context.bTR()
    for k = 1, 3 do
      context.bTD()
        context("fib(%s)=%s" ,3*j+k, fib(3*j+k) )
      context.eTD()
    end
  context.eTR()
end
context.eTABLE()
\stopluacode
\stoptext
